Pam MacKinnon directs the cast which includes Tony Award winner Frank Wood, Annie Parisse, Jeremy Shamos, Crystal A. Dickinson, Brendan Griffin, Damon Gupton and Christina Kirk. According to press notes, Clybourne Park is "inspired by Lorraine Hansberry's A Raisin the Sun, the American classic about a black family that moves out of the ghetto and into a white neighborhood. Norris has taken a minor character, Karl Linder, from the earlier play and connects the audience to the white folks who are about to be impacted by the arrival of a black family."
